Gov. John Kasich in talks to bring superhero film to Cleveland

Ohio Gov. John Kasich said he has been in talks with city officials to bring shooting of a $40 million Marvel/Disney superhero movie to Cleveland.

The Republican governor said Sunday that the movie, which he would not name, was originally supposed to be filmed in Michigan.

"It would be a real shot in the arm for us," he said, while taking a break from the National Governors Association meeting.

Kasich joked that he would like a cameo role in the film, but not as a superhero.

"Probably holding the superhero’s cape," he joked. "Just one little shot."
